1916 argument, unmeasured. The chapter names thirteen risks, which this worker groups in four: perceptual (hallucinations), moral (imitation, loss of resistance and moral balance, harm to the young mind, 'psychical infection', unmeasurable weakening of general righteousness, glamorised vice with an appended punishment, suppression of contrary ideas), intellectual (trivialising, simplification and stereotyping caused by wordlessness, wasted lessons) and aesthetic (the commonplace triumphing, derision of the medium as an aesthetic vehicle). Wording ranges from 'may' (19 uses in lines 3746-4071) and 'cannot be overlooked' to 'must be fraught with dangers'; the only statement that a risk cannot be measured is the 'no psychologist can determine' sentence. No risk is tied to a measured case.
